Our story is a touching one — literally.
It all began when co-founders Flavia and Valerie met during a weekend adult ballet class in London.
There, they noticed something curious, everyone in the studio was wearing the same old leotards: stiff, heavy, and uncomfortably tight. Most of them were made from unsustainable materials, doing little to support the dancers, or the planet.
Valerie, an adult ballet enthusiast, voiced a question that had long been on her mind:
Why hasn’t anyone designed balletwear that’s high-performing, sculpting, and truly comfortable, without making us feel guilty about its environmental impact?
FLa Ballet was born to bridge that gap.
To reimagine balletwear from the ground up, built with Ballet community, Made with Functionality, Comfort, and Sustainable.
So, we decided to be the first.
In community, we often hear people say:
"In my next life, I’d love to be a ballet dancer."
"If only I hadn’t given up ballet when I was younger..."
These simple words carry the heartfelt dreams of countless souls captivated by ballet’s allure. Like scattered pearls, they shimmer with the light of unfulfilled aspirations.
At Fla Ballet, we believe that dreams know no bounds of time or age.
What is the true essence of ballet, this elegant yet demanding art? Is it flawless technique or the spotlight’s glow? We believe ballet’s heart lies in the courage to begin anew, no matter where you are in life.
With that belief, we began a quiet revolution, a reshaping of what ballet could be.
But more than a revolution, this became the way of life.
Yes, it has been full of challenges.
But with every movement, every story, We are casting a VOTE for a new future in ballet.
